<\/p>\n

After over 30 years of dedication and service with Bay Community Health, Dr. Wayne Bierbaum will be retiring from medical practice effective February 16, 2022.<\/b> <\/div>\n

[\/et_pb_code][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.24″ text_font=”Bws-medium-i||||||||” text_font_size=”21px” text_line_height=”1.6em”]It will be very hard for me to leave as I have enjoyed working with the community of people that come to Bay Community Health. There have been many changes and growth that has occurred during my thirty-two-year tenure. There are now two office sites and soon to be three. <\/p>\n

However, it is now time for me to shift my focus. I have so many more things planned for my future that does not involve medicine. <\/p>\n

Bay Community Health will continue to work to improve the health of the patients in Southern Anne Arundel County. We have several new providers on board that I am confident will continue promoting the mission to provide access to quality healthcare to the community. <\/p>\n

I have never retired before so this will be a brand-new beginning for me that I look forward to![\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”50px|30px|50px|30px” custom_margin=”||40px” disabled_on=”on|on|on” _builder_version=”3.24″ background_color=”#f5f5f5″ border_color_bottom=”#4abbc0″ box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_blur=”8px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,40,85,0.14)” width=”100%” max_width=”1170px” z_index=”0″ disabled=”on”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.24″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.24″ text_font=”Bws-bold||||||||” text_text_align=”center” text_font_size=”22px” text_line_height=”1.6em”]<\/p>\n

All patients currently scheduled with Dr. Bierbaum past this date will automatically be placed onto Dr. Paul Chen\u2019s schedule for the same date\/time. If there needs to be any adjustments, you will receive a call from our office to reschedule. Should you wish to reschedule with a different provider or date\/time, please contact our office to reschedule.<\/p>\n

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we adjust through this major shift in our practice. We too are saddened at the retirement of Dr. Bierbaum yet we are also excited for him to pursue his other passions. We wish him nothing but the best during his retirement!<\/p>\n
